respective quota, as per his/her merit. Depending on his/her preference for a
college/branch, a candidate may take admission against his/her reserved
category or against the open category. If an applicant belonging to any reserved
category is admitted against the open seats on the basis of his/her AIEEE rank,
then he/she will not be counted against the reserved seat.
(b) The student who has applied in more than one reserved category is to be
considered in each reserved category in which he/she has applied for admission
maintaining his/her inter-se seniority in each reserved category on the basis of
merit in each category. In such a case, the student will get the benefit in one
category of his/her choice or as per his/her preference of branches submitted at
the time of counseling. However, no further reservation shall be allowed within
the reserved categories.

eligible candidates, the same may be filled from amongst open category
candidates belonging to the same quota. Seats in the Chandigarh Quota and
All India Quota are not interchangeable.
NOTE: In case of All India Quota, if a seat belonging to the SC category remains
unfilled, it will first be thrown open to the ST category candidates, and

categories have been considered, a vacant seat belonging to any of these
categories, can be offered to an open category candidate.
Shifting of a candidate from a reserved category seat to an open category seat:

the counseling for the open category seats held after that for the reserved
categories) provided he/she is eligible for the same as per his/her merit in the open
category. The reserved category seat(s) falling vacant as a result of any such shifting
